30. Why Less Isn't Always More with Guest Megan Millecam

Send us Fan MailWould you say you have a little food fear? When it comes to our health and body composition goals it's pretty natural and often encouraged to see food as our enemy. We count every calorie or macro that goes into our mouth, never miss a grueling workout and if we eat too much we sometimes feel bad about ourselves and try to make up for our "lack of will-power" by eating less and exercising more. Sound familiar? So many of us have fallen into this "less is more" trap at some point in our lives. There's a lot of information being thrown at us in magazines, on blogs, on social media, etc, that if we want to look fit and healthy, the approach we need to take is to eat less. It can be so frustrating when we follow this advice to keep cutting calories and adding more exercise, to then actually see our bodies STOP progressing. Today's episode is all about why this happens, and why less isn't always more. Today's guest is Megan Millecam, a fitness and nutrition expert that provides virtual training + nutrition coaching.
